To Ship Cold Storage tluttcr.
It is reported that 3.oon ono pounds
of butter must be shipped abroad w :th
ln the next few weeks in order to
maintain the present hich prices and
to make good the losses of cold storage
holders. There Is 'always some excuse
to make the consumer pay the differ

ing it out of the market so nobody can
get it.

is that they stored the butter at a cer

Senator Cullom in the I J inflight-
Vnited States Senator Shelby M. Cu!- j
leva has been thrust, doubtless to his
tlismay, into the limelight of the now
famous Lortmer election case.
Owing to the age of the senior sena
tor from Illinois one cannot but hesi-
tate to forcefully urge upon him any j Progressive Republican league adopt
eggresiye action or to criticise him j ed many of the things Owen has con
fer failure to have long since lifted his j teuded for. It was Senator Owen who
voice in the United States senate in ;
defense of the state which has so long
maintained him in office.
It has been said by some of the
senior Illinois senator's most intimate
IolitIcal associates and supporters tha:
he should be saved from the embar-i
rassmeni of this situation, but Senator
Hale of XIaine has forWd Senator Cul-
lom into the limelight by declaring
"I should like, before this case (the
Lortmer case) is disposed of, that
some senator perhaps my venerable j think increased salaries will result In
friend from Illinois (Mr. Cullom), wheiany better judicial decisions, if the re-
has so long represented that state
without a stain upon his record I
should like for hlz to tell us whether
these things are so."
Where does Cullom stand?
Illinois awaits his answer!
Guaranty of Deposits in Wlsccnstn
The first echo of the decision of the
supreme court of the United States
balding constitutional the bank: de
posits guaranty laws of Oklahoma,
Nebraska and Kansas, Is the announce
ment that the majority members of
the Wisconsin legislature are agreed j
in the terms of a guaranty bill and will
enact it into law at the present ses
sion. The failure of the hank at Mineral
Point, of which Phil Allen, now confin
ed in Leavenworth, was cashier, and
in which depositors lost about 70 per
cent of their savings, is one of the
strong arguments supporting the Wis
consin measure. It requires no elo
quence to convince at least the depos
itors in this bank that the state should
require bankers to guaranty depositors
against loss of their savings.
The bill as agreed upon provides that
on the second Monday of next Janu
ary all the state banks shall set aside
an amcunt equal to 1 per cent of their
average daily deposits for a fund to be
known as "depositors insurance fund."
Every year thereafter they will be re
quired to add to this fund one-tenth of
i per cent of the average deposits, un
til the total fund equals 2 per cent of
the average total deposits.
Claims of depositors against insolv
ent banks who have not received more
than 3 per cent interest on deposits
are to be paid out of this insurance
fund, which is to be under the control
of the state commissioner of banking.
No bank which fails to pass the ex
amination by the state commissioner
on banking next July will be entitled
to come under this law, and no new
bank will receive a charter which can-j
rot qualify as to the insurance fund.
The bank commissioner is authorized
not to Jssue a charter to any new bank
1? he believes there is not sufficient
business tributary to the proposed lo
cation of the bank to make it a paying
ins-tit ut ion.
It 13 expected that the guarantee
fund will amount to $1,202,000 after,
t': first 1 per cent deposits have been
set aside for it, and to $2,500,000 when
the full 2 per cent is paid.
' This sum is deemed sufficient for th
demands lively to arise against it. Of
! course the banking interest will op
' pose the passage of the bill, as tend
' iv.g to work a hardship upon it, but
the legislature of Wisconsin is one that '
, iti'requc-ntly is restrained by the influ
, ences of favored classes from doing

one evening in Munich a party of
Americans were sitting at a tf.ble in
the Ilofbrauhaus ostensibly for test

renlly to view tfle different persons
about them. The party consisted of a
Mr. and Mrs. H.ithorne. their son

whom they had met on their travels.

A slight flush overspread the fea

table when one of the officers said be

I:etween the sexes, especially young
people, there are sign expressions that

officers, and the two Items gave her
a clew. They were talking about her
and bad excited the Indignation of the
young civilian. Her father, her broth
er and the Britisher all sat unmindful
of what was going on. till Grace, feel
ing uncomfortable, said she was tired
and wished to go to the hotel. The
party arose, and s they did so one of
the ofiicers. who was half drunk, threw
her a
kiss with the words. "Goodby. j

The situation was painfully embar
rassing. Every man la the Hathorne
rarty knew that resenting the Insult
would bring a challenge from the Ger
man. Sir Clive Ojlesby grew very red
in the face; George Hathorne started
toward the Germans, but his mother
caught the skirt of his coat and held

' daughter's hand under bis arm and
marched her out of the Ilofbrauhaus.
The others of the party followed, show

ncers, iaia it down before the one who
had perpetrated the Insult. It read,
"Ward Claybonrne, Kentucky. U. S. A."
"Gentlemen." he said, "you have
made a mistake In these people whom
you have insulted. Only one Is Eng
lish; the others are countrymen of
mine. You are right in assuming that
they do not fight. They are brought
up in a different school. Fortunately
for them, however, my education In
I your line has not been neglected. I
will trouble you for a written apology,
which I trill be happy te transmit to
the lady you have Insulted."
The mnn who had received the card
motioned to one of his comrades, who
asked Mr. Claybourne's address and
promised to bring a reply immediately.
Having given It. the Keutucklan with

bnt he knew nothing about the Amer

Kentuckiaua were very expert with a
weapon called the Lowie knife, but
was not aware that that period bad
long passed. He knew also that an
apology was due from him. lint, being
an army man. he dared not refuse a
challenge. His second called on Clay
hourne and said that if an apology
was due It was due to the young laciy
and not to him. He would therefore
accept the challenge.
It so happened that the nathornes
and Claybourne were stopping at the j
same hotel. Miss Hathorne, Sir Clive
and one or two Americaus were
sitting In the lounging room talking
i over the disagreeable indent of the
; evening when Miss Hnthorne saw one

Ilofbrauhaus come Into The hotel. Ia
a few minutes she saw him go out
accompanied as far ns the door by the
young man of the third table. There
j was a puzzled look ou her face for a
, few moments: then she paled. Could
it be that this ma:i who had flushed
when the ofiicers wore looking at her
des!t writing, the only person in the
room. She stood looking at him
through a very large acd very beau

deferentially.
"Are you English?" she asked.
"American."
"Would you inlnd asnurlng me that
the visit Just paid you has nothing to
do with me?"
Clayt-ourne was stumped. lie made
no reply.
"Is there to be a duel ?" she went on.
"This is very unfortunate." was the
only reply.
"I forbid yon to fight on my ac
count." "It would be impossible for me to
obey your order."
"I will go to these men and forbid
them as well."
She looked so resolute that Clay
bourne was troubled. He feared to
be placed in a false position.

"None." replied Claybourne. hanging
his head, and gave her the address.
Without paying any more attention
to him she left the room.
Claybourne gave vent to an expres
sion very common among English
speaking people. He crammed his
flsts down Into his trousers pockets
and strode to and fro.
"What a fool I have been." he said
to himself, "to receive that fellow
here! The whole thing Is spoiled. I
shall not only be deprived of the
pleasure of punishing him I should
like to cut off his nose but they will

flushed with the eflfort she bad made.
"For heaven's sake"' he said.
"What have you done?"
She handed him a paper addressed
to him. It was a written apology for
the Insult that had been offered her.
"How did you get It?"
"Asked for It They at first declin
ed to address It to you. but I declined
to accept it unless they did."
"You have made a mess of it." said
Claybourne. In an Irritated tone, for
the moment losing his self control.
"It would have been a worse mess
for your opponent if I had not Inter

didn't tell him who you were till then.
Well, he said: 'Ach! Donnerhoff.

They say he always finishes his op
ponents by cutting off their noses."
"That's exactly what I Intended to
do." cried Claybourne passionately,
"and you have spoiled It all.
The girl burst into a laugh.
Gradually the comical view of the
situation dawned upon Claybourne. and
his face took on an unwilling smile.
Miss nathorne thought It the loveliest
smile she bad ever seen on a man's
face.
"Ton didn't go to them alone, did
you?" he asked.
"Yes, I did. It's no time to be prud
ish when a man's nose is at stake."
She laughed again. So did Clay
bourne. "I would like very much to make
your acquaintance." said the Ken
tucklan. There was another laugh on the part
of both of them.
"Well." she said, "since you've taken
my Interference so considerately I
think I'll permit ynu to call."
lie called the next morning, and his
call lasted during their stay in Mu

voyage to America. In short, the call
has never ended. Mr. and Mrs. Clay

desire to cut off people's noses.
